As an American, I can’t believe the ref just robbed us of the game with that call! I think each team should get to challenge 1 call per half and we take it to the tapes. That was such a great game otherwise! Finding our groove
Was there. As a neutral. Clear view. He moved his arm towards the ball. Was a penalty. VAR would have given it. First half Wrexham was all long ball and Mullin falling over. Fortunate opener. Thought it was poor. Charlton played better football in first half. Second half Wrexham much better and got ball on the floor. Did control the game apart from the last minute. Poor game management to blame, not the pen. Draw was about right on balance.
I agree. If he doesn't move his arm towards the ball it is no penalty (or should not be given). But Max does, so I don't think the referee had much choice other than to award a penalty. Seb Revan's decision to commit the foul before the penalty award was a poor choice.
Mark, love your commentary and honest assessment. Your game calling is fantastic!

This match had high highs and low lows. But a great showing and onto the next one. Thank you, Mark.
Hey Mark🏴
I bet they've had their Ready Brek
How can you say that’s not a penalty? His arm wasn’t tucked away, his arm was out and made his body bigger. 100% a pen.
